WooHoo. Progress in action. I know you can make it work. :-D If you get the angle that the axle, swingarm and countershaft make the exact same as the KXF450 you can run a stock spark plug. Anything less...its a shorty. I hope you dont have to convert yours to diesel. Lets ponder....Detroit 8-71, 6-71, 4-71 and the new KX 1-30
More pic please. JFAB

Looks like Point of no return :mrgreen:
Diesel engines have more torgue :roll:, so might be a good idea :-)
I cut the main tube just a bit higher than the lowest point of left radiator.
But the gastank and plug info is a good idea. Didn't thought about that realy.
As you can see the frame came to holland by Canada.
The old owner made airvent from the engine case true the frame, so when cutting there
came a lot of oil out. Or looks like it's bleeding.
tryed to put engine in without cutting the Y section. It's to sjort like you said Don.!!!
